Flow Control - Smart Video Speed Controller

Flow Control is a powerful Chrome extension that puts you in charge of video playback speed. It remembers your preferences for each website and can even adjust speed automatically based on video length.

• Per-Site Memory: Remembers your preferred speed settings for each website.
• Smart Speed Ranges: Set different default speeds based on video duration (e.g., faster for longer videos).
• Auto-Apply: Automatically applies your saved settings when you load a new video on a known site.
• Works Everywhere: Compatible with YouTube, Netflix, educational platforms (Coursera, Udemy), and most sites using HTML5 video.
• Intuitive Interface: Modern, clean UI with simple controls and a visual editor for speed ranges.
• One-Click Reset: Easily reset the speed to the default 1.0x.
